I'm caught up in the game. My attention is on every play and every whistle, but what
0:04
I'm missing is a signal coming from my kidneys. That signal isn't like a ref's whistle, it's
0:09
more of a silent SOS which could be warning me of an increased risk for events like heart
0:13
attack or stroke. And a way I can catch that signal? A simple urine test called UACR.
0:19
If you have type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure, talk to your doctor about the UACR test.

Hey everyone, welcome back to Wealth Mindset Mornings. I'm your host, Jake Carter, and
0:36
let me tell you there's nothing quite like starting your day with a little dose of inspiration
0:41
in some serious truth bombs. Today we're tackling something that plagues almost every single
0:47
one of us at some point, self-doubt, and the crippling fear of failure. Ever felt like
0:53
you were just on the cusp of greatness, but then BAM. That inner critic swoops in, whispering
1:00
doubts and making you question everything? You know that feeling when you have this amazing
1:06
idea, a project you're truly passionate about, but you hesitate because what if it flops?
1:13
What if people judge you? What if you end up looking like a complete fool? I get it, trust
1:19
me. We all have those moments. But here's the thing, my friends. Fear is a liar. It thrives
1:26
on our insecurities and magnifies every perceived risk. It paints these monstrous scenarios
1:33
in our minds, convincing us that failure is inevitable and success is just a pipe dream.
1:39
But guess what? That's simply not true. We're so much more capable than we often give
1:45
ourselves credit for. Overcoming self-doubt and conquering the fear of failure isn't about
1:51
becoming fearless. It's about acknowledging those fears, understanding them, and then
1:57
taking action despite them. It's about stepping outside our comfort zones, embracing the
2:03
unknown, and realizing that failure is just a stepping stone to success. Here are five
2:11
key takeaways that can help you bust through those self-doubt walls and start living with
2:16
more confidence and courage. One. Reframe your definition of failure. Listen up. Failure
2:24
isn't the opposite of success. It's part of the journey. Every single successful person
2:30
out there has experienced setbacks, blunders, and moments where they questioned everything.
2:36
Think about Thomas Edison. He didn't invent the light bulb on his first try. Nope, he
2:42
failed thousands of times before finally striking gold. So remember, every failure is a valuable
2:50
lesson learned, an opportunity to grow, and a chance to get even closer to your goals.
2:56
Two. Ditch the perfectionism trap. Let's be real. Perfection is an illusion. Striving
3:05
for perfection is like chasing the wind. It's exhausting, unattainable, and ultimately
3:10
prevents you from taking action. Instead of aiming for flawlessness, focus on progress.
3:17
Celebrate small wins. Learn from your mistakes, and remember that done is better than perfect.
3:23
Three. Embrace your inner critic. But don't let it run the show. That voice in your head
3:30
that whispers doubts? Yeah, we all have it. But instead of letting it dictate your actions,
3:37
acknowledge it, understand its roots, and then challenge those negative thoughts. Ask
3:42
yourself. Is this thought really true? What evidence do I have to support it? What would
3:48
I tell a friend who was thinking this way? Four. Surround yourself with supportive people.
3:55
You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so choose wisely.
4:01
Surround yourself with individuals who believe in you. Encourage your growth, and celebrate
4:07
your successes. Depositive energy and unwavering support will fuel your confidence, and empower
4:13
you to overcome self-doubt. Five. Visualize your success. Close your eyes for a moment,
4:21
and imagine yourself achieving your goals. See yourself confidently taking action, overcoming
4:28
challenges, and celebrating your victories. The more vividly you visualize success, the
4:34
more real it becomes. It's like planting a seed in your mind, with consistent watering
4:40
and care. It will blossom into reality. Think about that time you hesitated to take a chance,
4:47
to speak up in a meeting, or to pursue that dream project because of fear. What if you
4:53
had just ignored those doubts and gone for it? Now imagine how different things would be.
4:59
That's the power we all have within us, the ability to rewrite our stories, overcome
5:04
limitations, and achieve anything we set our minds to. Remember, your worth is not defined
5:12
by your successes or failures. It's inherent in who you are as a human being. So embrace
5:18
your imperfections, celebrate your progress, and never, ever let fear hold you back from
5:24
living your best life. Alright, my friends, that's a wrap for today. I want to hear from
5:30
